Choosing between account tiers determines whether Magma operates as an exploratory sketching pad or a production-ready studio environment. The free tier gives casual illustrators and hobbyists an accessible entry point, but it enforces technical ceilings that prevent full-scale commercial utilization.

For individual sketch artists and casual art jams, the Free Tier provides:

• Access to shared boards with basic drawing toolsets.
• Strict limits on active canvas sizes (capped around standard high-definition dimensions).
• Layer count constraints designed to manage cloud server memory loads.
• Limited cloud storage retention for archived projects.

Professional pipelines, animation studios, and game concept teams migrate toward Pro and Enterprise Tiers (ranging from approximately $10 to $25 per user/month depending on billing cycles and seat counts). These tiers remove the resolution ceiling, opening support for 4K and 8K canvases, unlimited layers, and deep revision histories.

Critically, professional subscriptions introduce full layer permissions. Studio leads can lock background layers, assign exclusive painting regions to specific artists, and export multi-layer `.psd` archives directly to local storage arrays for finishing touches in desktop compositing suites.
